European Adventure Recap - Arriving in Paris

Saturday October 24, 2009

Paris, France

We arrived in Paris about mid-day on Saturday.  After finding a restroom at the train station and converting our money from Pounds to Euros, we found our way onto the subway and to our hotel (pictured below).

We stayed in the Latin Quarter Area of Paris.  It was pretty centrally located and very close to 2 different subway stations

Here's a view of the inside with the windows open showing the railing in front of our window - it was nice to open the window and let the fresh air in!

Isn't that a lovely view?

Here's one with the windows shut

The awesome flatscreen TV we had - too bad we couldn't understand French!!

Another corner of the room

And yet another corner....I think I caught Shannon in mid-chew

Here's the bathroom....no shower curtain meant lots of water everywhere after a shower!

Here were the complimentary items in the bathroom - 2 plastic cups, two make-up applicator pads, and what I think was a shoe-polishing sponge.

Here's a view out of the hotel window - you can see we were right next to the sign.

Here's looking left out of the window....

....and here's looking right.

This was the street our hotel was on - a view down one side...

...and a view down the other side

YAY for being in Paris!
